00:00Our Road to 2024 Paris Olympics continues.

00:04One of the Philippine flag-bearers will play a game that sometimes involves shoulder injury.

00:11Let's meet Carlo Paalam in the game of J.P. Soriano.

00:22It's just a practice.

00:23The punches of Tokyo Olympics silver medallist Carlo Paalam will break the wall.

00:31After defeating an Indian in the men's 57kg event of the 2nd Olympic Boxing Qualification Tournament in Thailand,

00:40he will play in the 2024 Paris Olympics Boxing Ring.

00:45But aside from that, he was also chosen to be the flag-bearer of the Philippines

00:50along with his fellow boxer, Nesty Petesho.

00:53Why? They are the silver medallists last Tokyo Olympics.

01:00That's it.

01:01I'm really happy.

01:02It's like you're not just carrying the Philippines on your shoulders.

01:06It's not like you're an athlete.

01:08Because the Philippines is on top.

01:14Carlo's new Olympic dream is about to be fulfilled

01:18after withdrawing from the World Qualification Tournament last March

01:22because of his shoulder injury.

01:25It was a huge adjustment.

01:27I was always thinking about my mental health.

01:30How will I recover?

01:32I was injured in Italy.

01:34It was just a few weeks before I played.

01:36It was really hard for me.

01:39But the hope is that Carlo Paalam's fighting spirit will grow stronger.

01:47That's when I thought,

01:49I can do this.

01:50This is for me.

01:51That's how it is.

01:52Until I improved.

01:53All of us were prepared.

01:55But I will do my best.

01:57According to the Philippine Boxing Team head coach,

02:00Carlo's weight division is 52kg to 57kg.

02:07Even so...

02:08Carlo's talent is unforgivable.

02:11No matter who the opponent is, orthodox or southpaw,

02:15he can manage the opponent.

02:22He tried to teach the discarding techniques in our Boxing 101.

02:26One, two, one, two. Good.

02:28When you go back, punch me.

02:31Bang.

02:32That's enough.

02:33Because if you get your distance, he's gone.

02:35Just like how to avoid and go back when you're inside the ring.

02:40One, two, three.

02:41Back.

02:43Good.

02:44For GMA Integrated News,

02:46JP Soriano,

02:48for 24 Hours.
